5 Aspects

5 Aspects (Panchang) Panchang is a spiritual and scientific Hindu calendar. It is an ancient art of Vedic astrology that helps to maintain the best days and time to come. Panchang has been derived from two words Panch(meaning 5) and ang(meaning aspect). The panchang measures time in lunar months whose names reveal the secret path of stars and constellations. It lists four weeks of seven days, identified with planets and gods. This therefore takes into account five aspects - Din(Vara) or the solar day, Tithi or the lunar day, Nakshatra or the constellation, Yoga and Karan. http://www.vedicprediction.com/panchang.html
